January 2013 dresses!

la > hong kong > shenzhen > taipei

I went to Asia the second half of December on a family trip!
I hadn't been back to Taiwan and Hong Kong in 24 years....



Having witnessed so much mass-production,
I am now more determined than ever to keep creating my one-of-a-kind dresses from existing fabrics.
Trying to hold onto all the great designs I saw too.  Thank goodness for camera phones!

Here are all the pieces I made and sold the first half of December 2012:



Looking forward to an exciting and busy 2013!  And more travel to inspire!!!

Silkscreening joy

I can't tell you how happy I am to be printing so much again this past year. Designing and sewing my dresses goes to another level when I am able to also enhance the graphic quality of my thrifted, found knits.
